'''Assassin's Creed: Forsaken''' is a novel written by [[Oliver Bowden]], which was released on 4 December 2012. The novel focuses on events prior and during ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'', and unveils [[Haytham Kenway]]'s roots, showing the story of how he became a [[Templars|Templar]].

==Book summary==
{{Quote|I am an expert swordsman. And I am skilled in the business of death. I take no pleasure in my skill. Simply, I am good at it.|Haytham Kenway}}
1735 – London, Haytham Kenway has been taught to use a sword from the age he was able to hold one. When his family's house is attacked – his father murdered and his sister taken by armed men, Haytham defends his home the only way he can... he kills. With no family, he is taken in by a mysterious tutor who trains him to become a deadly killer.

Consumed by his thirst for revenge, Haytham begins a quest for retribution, trusting no one and questioning everything he has ever known.
Conspiracy and betrayal surround him as he is drawn into the centuries-old battle between the [[Assassins]] and the Templars.

==Trivia==
*The release date, December 4, was also the date that Haytham was born.
*The prologue to the book was written by Haytham's son, [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]], and mentions his regret for not having truly known him.
*Unlike the other ''Assassin's Creed'' novelizations written by Bowden, ''Forsaken'' does not follow the same story as ''Assassin's Creed III''. Instead, it details Haytham's story throughout the same time period, showing an mirrored perspective to what the game portrays.
**There is a major flaw in the trailer for the book- it shows scenes of Connor's life, without a millisecond of Haytham's scene.

'''Silas Thatcher''' (1720 – 1754) was a high-ranking officer of the [[British Army]], and a prolific slave trader.

Silas was responsible for the ransacking of [[Benjamin Church]]'s house, and his subsequent interrogation, alongside a man called "Cutter". However, shortly after he left, [[Haytham Kenway]] and [[Charles Lee]] freed their associate, through infiltrating the location Church was kept – after they determined his whereabouts through [[eavesdropping]] – and the silent assassination of Cutter and two guards.

Later, while posted at [[Southgate Fort]] in [[Boston]], he would receive deliveries of prisoners. In 1754, one such convoy, full of [[Mohawk]] tribespeople, was commandeered by Haytham and his men as a means to enter the fortification.

Shortly after, on discovering the ruse, Silas ordered his men to fire on the [[Templars]], but he was cornered by Haytham and executed by Church, as a means of payback for the latter's previous maltreatment.

==Trivia==
*In the official E3 gameplay of ''Assassin's Creed III'', Silas was portrayed as a Templar, and was intended to be an assassination target of the Assassin [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]]. This change gives an impression that originally, Haytham's role was going to be shorter, or Connor's role was going to be a bit more than it is currently.
**Additionally, the mission shown in E3 is much similar to liberating a fort- [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] tree-navigates through The Frontier, fighting enemies. He enters the fort and assassinates Silas (whereas in fort liberation, [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] has to kill a high ranking officer).
